Running 215 front and 255 rear tires on aftermarket rims, OK or not OK ?
 

Running 215 front and 255 rear tires on aftermarket rims, OK or not OK ? Less oversteer I assume but too much understeer? Or is this set up just right? 17x7.5 front and 17x8.5 rear on stock suspension. Current set-up is 225 front and 255 rear. I track my car as well.

Sounds good to me thats what the NSX runs

The sizes are going to be fine. They are a little shorter than stock but the stagger is fine.
If I can help with the tires let me know.

This setup is what I'm running to accommodate for the lack of offset on my front 17" rims which are 8" wide (49+). I could probably run 225s up front w/o rubbing, but I'll stick with the 215s since it's closer to the stock stagger ratio for whatever that's worth.

You should run 215/45/17.

I hear the Kumho MXs are comparable to S0-3s, which is a good thing. I just hate the sidewall design with all that neon-sign crap writing.


Good luck,

The Kumho rear is 129.00 each and front is 115.00 front. Let me know if I can help.
